1948 IM Program, Rules Explained To Managers
The intramural sports program for this year was outlined and explained by Don Powell, director of men's intramurals, to the managers of the teams in a meeting held Tuesday. Powell estimated the attendance to be the largest of any intramural meeting.
Powell stated that the intramural rules on football have been changed this year to conform with the national high school rules, which also underwent several changes.
The only major changes in the intramural sports program were the elimination of the coveted sweepstakes trophy and the protest ruling. Under the new protest ruling, a team entering a protest must pay five dollars "good faith" money, which will be forfeited if the protesting team loses the decision of the protest. The protest board is no longer made up of students, but will consist of members of the Physical Education department.
The number and types of sports in this year's program will be the same this year as it has been in the past with the exception of handball, which had to be eliminated owing to the razing of the handball courts for the new drive. There will be a 35 cent fee for each entrant in a sport.
Student managers for the year will be Frank Prosser, who will manage the major sports, and Charles Wagstaff, who will be in charge of the minor sports. Sophomore managers are Fred Six, Wayne Davis, Boa Harrison, Charles Hall, and Frank Ross.
Powell announced that the deadline on applications for freshman managers would be October 4. Deadlines on the other sports were September 27 for tennis, horseshoes and golf, and October 1 for touch football. He said that play and competition in the minor sports would get underway September 29. There is no limit on the number of players from each house or independent organization who may participate in each sport.
Powell stated that the "Intramural ball," which is usually held in the spring, was not self-supporting and that it would have to be discontinued unless the houses wanted to help the intramural office to defray the expenses.
Some of the rule changes in touch football are the rules on kick-offs, blocking, passing, and the penalty rule. All kick-offs will be from the 25 yard line, a second kick will be used if the first one goes out-of-bounds. If the second one also goes out-of-bounds, it will be put into play on the receivers 35 yard stripe.
Teams may be penalized to their own one yard line if the amount of
penalized place them that All blocking must be done
Air blocking must be done upright position with the hands against the chest, but the hands must not be locked.
Under the clear pass rule, the receiver of the pass from center must pass the ball or kick it before it can cross the scrimmage line.
Intramural touch football competition will start October 4.
Playoffs On Again Tonight
Bv UNITED PRESS
The Columbus Redbirds and the Milwaukee Brewers hoped to resume their American association playoff series tonight after two postponements.
Last night's game was cancelled because of wet grounds. The night before rain forced postponement.
Columbus holds a three-to-two edge in the series, and needs one more win to clinch it. St. Paul eliminated league champion Indianapolis in the other section of the playoffs Monday night.
Olivar Named Best Coach
New York. Sept. 22—(UP)—His schedule is all upside down—two of the toughest games come first after that the rest should be comparatively easy.
He is the United Press Coach of the Week, Jordan "Ollie" Olivar of the up and coming Villanova Wildcats who bounced Texas A & M to the tune of 34 to 14 in last Saturday's opener.
The Aggies were tough enough but things promise to get worse at West Point, N.Y., Saturday when the Wildcats play Army's Cadets, who have beaten them five straight times to the collective tune of 212 to 0.
"We're going to have to score on Army before we can think about winning the ball game," said the tall, handsome Olivar, who was unique as a player at Villanova 10 years ago because he called the signals from his tackle post.
Cat Wins Out Over Dog In Mother-Love Clash
Wichita—(UP)—Tiny, a three-footed cat, is mothering her own litter of four kittens and five terrier nups as well.
Mrs. R. G. Windham, owner of the pets, said the two litters were born less than 12 hours apart. Tiny and the pups' mother each wanted to care for both litters.
"They fought it out," Mrs. Windham said. "Tiny won and now she's nursing all nine."

Visitor Forced To Stop For Game
Mt. Vernon, Ill. — (UP) — The crowd was terrific; traffic jammed with cars bringing fans to the sectional basketball tournament at the Mt. Vernon gymnasium. Police were directing traffic.
One man who had been ordered into a parking space called for the authorities: "Get me out of here." He was told to wait until after the game.
"What game?" asked the outraged visitor. "I'm from Pennsylvania and I'm on my way to California." But he was already five cars deep—and he stayed for the game.
